FRENCH PAPERS. (From the Mont: of Wedoesday.) PARIS, JAN. 17.—After some reflections on the language held by the other Journals, respecting the events et St. Petersburgb, the Etatle con. duties as follows : " We invite the pnblic to he on its guard against all the falsehoods which the Journals will not fail to utter respecting the depositions of the officers arrested at St. Petersburgh. It would expose itself again to take falsehoods and suppo. sitions for realities. There were evidently some persons who were misled on the 2tlth, anti it may be said that all the soldiers were in this situation. 'The Emperor has pardoned them all. As for the officers, several of them may, undoubtedly, have been hurried away by an error, which may be justified ; but those who dreamt of theories in applicable to their country., Santa Roses of the Banks of the Neva, would be unpardonable, after the sanguinary lessons which Europe has .received. ." How criminal are those who, secure from all danger, basely sow, iu a Journal, ideas which wiliterminate in some heads thousands of leagues off; and endanger the tranquillity of States. The .unfortunate Andoniesky, who put an end to his days with a pistol, before he %Vali taken ; this un fortunate poet, lliteiff Abalensky, and Gleheff himself, area terrible proof of the danger of their incendiary writings, which professors of discord every day scatter with profusion. 66 We then easily understand the motives which dictate the prohibition pronounced against these Journals, one after the other. And the call pre caution against fire, violations of liberty. ". The following are the promotions made by the Emperor on his accession : `, Generals Souchazanett (Commander of the Artillery of the ouhrdj„ lxleniefP, Poapoff, Stakanoff, Duchakoff, and Tchit. cherin (commkuding the Dragoons of the Guards), are appoint. etl A id.tle-Camp General; Count Stephen Apraxin, Major. .General ; ell the Colonels commanding Battalions of the Regi ment Preebruginskiare, appointed Aid.dt.Camp to the Em. peror." The directing Senate at St. Petersburgh de cided, in its Sitting on the 10th December that a Colossal Statue shalt be erected to the late Em peror, with this inscription :--• " RUSSIA TO ALEXANDER I." A circular letter is spoken of, addressed to the Russian Arubassadors►, in which the new Monarch professes the l►rinciples of pence and concord which were followed by his brother.—(Courier o.rthe Lower Rhine.) Abelenski, of ishmn we spoke yesterday, was Aielee•de-Camp to General Bistrom ; and Gle►boff was employed in the office of the Minister of Justice. Accounts from St. Bernard say, that the monks in the hospital never saw such a quantity of snow. The • avalanches are dreadfully frequent, and whenever the .guides set out, they think they take a last farewell of them. However, since the first accident that occurred, there have been no more. The guides have b ee n fr e quently overtaken by the snow, but have always had the good fortune to escape. (Front the journal des Debate.) Panes, 17.—Since the death of the Chief of the Holy Alliance, two Journals belonging to the Ministry have vied with each other in abusing England for supporting the cause of revolution, me fter having aided the bonnets rouges, after having been the firmest support of crowned heads. They ask, whither can this change of system ,lead ? This supposes there is no middle term between absolute power, aml the triumph of the revolutionary system—a ridiculous supposition, particularly when applied to a country in which .every thing is established on a legal liberty, and which equally r e jects arbitrary power, and the passions of the multitude. (Proni the Courier Francais.) PARIS, jAs. 17.—The Etude gives, from the Official Gazette of Berlin, a letter which shows how much the circumstances which conducted Nicholas to the throne of his brother require es . planation. " You take me (he says) for a usurper, and yet I am . ready to give up the Crown which I have been forced to assume. 1 have only accepted it because my brother has refused it. But if you will not have me for 14',1n. peror, here 1. am disarmed, strike!" Who has compelled Nicholas to mount the throne ? Has he also not been free ? Is it to four or five hun dred rebels, us they are called, that the Emperor offered to renounce his crown and his life ? `Would he not by this have recognised the so. vereignty of the military power ? And is it this Official Gazette of Berlin which attributes to the son in-law of the of Prussia this language ? ritENCII Ft, xn:4.—PA ars, ,Lor. 17.—Five per Cents.

DitEADPUL FIRE AT linussr.Ls.—On Monday morning ut three o'clock, a dreadful tire broke out hi the house of Pieire flooninckx, in the Faubourg de Ndmur Chaussec d'htelles. The maid servant leaped out of the window into the meet, and received an injury. The master and mistress, and two children and a workman, also escaped by the window and over the roofs. We regret to State that an Ettalo lady, 70 years of age, and her grand.daughtet, aged 8 years, who lodged in Ow house, perished in 'the flames, as well as a child of the proprietor,u year old. The bodies of the English lady and her grand-daugh. ter have since been found. At Ow capture of Shit as, by the Afghans, e ver y person found in arms in that city was put, to the ,word. The massacre being ovor, the conquerors plundered with their ordinary licentiousness. One remarkable incident is recorded of the pun i shmen t o f covetousness ; some of the soldiers *haying found in the house or a private man a con. siderohle quantity of corn, which he bad con cealed in prejudice to the other inhabitants, they tied him to a stake in his gratity, where ho died of huoger, revenging the death of many whom this wretch had sacrificed to his avarice. THE JUBILEE AT ROME. The JUBILIE YIAR, with all its boons and :; ii privations, at Rocca, terminated on the 24th of, December; and the Romans, after twelve months of prayers, processions, and indulgences, are nu. orally anxious for a little recreation. To grant this, however, there seems to be some degree of reluctance in their rulers ; for, instead of allow. ing the theatres to be opened at the usual time, immediately after Christ inns, no intimation of such concession has hitherto been published. Thr closing of what is called the holy gate at it. Peter's took place in the afternoon of Christ. nuts Ave, with the following ceremonies :—" Af ter vespers bad been sung in the Sistine Ch,. pel, the Pope, attended by the cardinals, &c., descended by a private staircase into the church, where he WA ti received by the Chapter, and prayed before the reliques and Sacra. He next gave out the anthem, Cunt ju canditaie exhibitis, which was stmg by his choris ters while the grand procession, preceding his liolinesa bearing a candle, marched into the par- tiro. Here he ascended the throne which had been prepared for him, and the assistants took their•respective places, The two steps of granite leading to the holy gate had been previously removed, and two of wood substituted. .S'ever2l trays containing bricks, mortar, and st-iirco, des tined for - the appearance of walling up the sacred . aperture, had been placed near the step:. The other requisites, such us aprons, trowels, &c. were disposed upon tables. Every thing being ready, the two wooden steps , were taken away, tise Pope quitted his throne, with mitre on head and candle in hand, in order to bless the bricks and mortar. This being performed, one of the masters of the ceremonies girt on him an apron. Kneeling upon upon a cushion placed in front of the doorway he received a trowel from a Cardinal, took with it some mortar, which lie spread upon the threshold, recitingat the same lima form of prayer. Upon this heplaced in the centreand at the sides three bricks, which were gilt, and embossed with his arms nod those of the cathedral. During this and subse quent operations the choir sung the hymn " Gw/estis urbs Jerusalem." Next came the Car ; dinal Chief Penitentiary, who also placed his bricks and mortar. his Eminence was followed in a like process by the four senior Penitentiaries (Confessors) belonging to the church. It will be sufficiently evident that the most workmnulike arrnogement of about 18 bricks could not close this entrance into the church ; but, in order to effect the semblance of completion, the work men lowered over the aperture a canvas painted' to represent a gate. The Pope, upon re turning to his throne, resigned the apron, and washed his hands, the ewer being preseoted by the Duke of Gravena,' and the towel by the senior Cardinal in priest's orders. His Holiness then rend the text of the above hymn. All the candles that had been borne by those who had composed the procession were now extinguished; the Pope gave out the To Deum, which was per formed by the choristers ; and the solemnity con eluded with a publication by two Cardinals of a plenary indulgence in favour of all present. Si• miler ceremonies were performed at the churches of St. John of Lateran, St. Mary •the Garter„ and St. Mary In Tritstevere, where the Jubilee gates were shut by Cardinals especially ale. gated to those offices." • • INUNDATIONS IN THE SOUTH or FRANCE. The news from Cate linda and R.oussillon, speak of the great disasters occasioned in these cent'. tries by the overflow of the rivers. The same misfortunes afflict the departments traversed by the Agont and the Tarn. A port of the depart ment of Aude is also said, to have Suffered mach from the overflow of a little river, celled Argent Double, the bed of which is dry for the greater part of the year. The correspondenee front Bourdeaux has not reached Toulouse for eight days past, and expresses sent to Langou htie declared that it wits impossible to proceed further. The great road of Lower Lao: guadoc has been greatly damaged by the moult dations, and several less important roads have been rendered impassable. The Garonne, in creased with the red %rulers of the Tarn and by the avalanches which fall into it with astonish ing rapidity from the sutnmits of the Pyrenees, again s overflowed its bunks, on the 6th of this month, and soon rose to a prodigious elevation ; in leis than four,and-twenty hours the plains of Agen and Saint Cyr were totally submerged in offered the spectacle of a vast sea. The inhabi tants of the villages, surprised by the waters in the night, saved themselves with great difft. culty ; but all has not escaped the ravages of the inundation, for the immense bed of the Garonne was covered with ruin ; stacks of hay and straw were seen floating down with ani ma l s on them, who bud fled thither for safety. It is said that houses built in different places along the bank of the stream have been washed away by the siolence of the current. At Agen, the Faubourgs St. Louis and St. An tome have been partly inundated ; in the Rue dcs Chureiliers the water rose to the first floor of the houses. It Wag impossible to describe the con sternation of the poor inhabitants of that quarter, who saw the rapid increase of the water. In these sorrowful circumstances the Mayor of Ages, has fulfilled the duties of a benevolent and courageous Magistrate ; in a light boat he successively went into all the threatened (par- Wl's, and every where took the measures neces sary to insure help to the unfortunate inhabit ants. On the Btit a.t about four in the evening the Garonne began to diminish, at first slowly, :but in a short time tolerably quick, and it has at present returned to its bed. The whole of lite damages which this inundation has caused are ttot yet known ; but they must have been,consider able, and it will no doubt be long before tkey are; repaired, if the benevolent hand of , our PrinCes is not• stretched to help the victims of Ithis scourge.—(Consfittrtionnel.)

O.—This day the Association met its their room in Burgh -street. The chair was taken by Lord tionars.ro.,r, who very pro perly hegged the Alembers would not fritter away their time in useless discussion. Mr. Ciwtt.ies FiTsrsiox being ap pointed Secretary, he read a letter front Mr. O'Gorman, the Secretary to the Old Association, urging the getting up of pc titions to Parliament immediately, and deprecating an idea suggrsted by Mr. APDonnell, that - of trying the Catholic question first in the House of Lords. Lord read some regithtions, and mewed the np. pointment of a Committee, which Mr. O'Connell seconded in a speech, in which he declared, that if Mr. Peel's jury Bill was extended to Ireland, he " would not hesitate in putting himself forward as the object of a prosecution, for the re.as semhling of the original Catholic Association,• in name, sub. stance, and reality." A Committee of nine being appointed, Air. O'Connell again addressed the Meeting in a speech, in which he began with abusing the Duke of I'4* . ; he then cast a glance at the pro bability:of England being embroiled in war, when of course, she must yield thtiCatholic claims; " I know nothing," said he, or what is peciartinglii (he frri'ten region of Russia..

L A settisliext rose, and entered into a review of Air. O'ConneWsbargaining'ivith the Government and the Attorney General, '7 degrading to the poor. Catholics of Ireland." Air. Lawless Said, "lite deprecated any truffle of their rights. with any Government, - .or any Attorney General," and stated that '‘ he meant to repose what he conceived to be a stronger rettolution Alm that introduced .• by Air„O'Connell, in order to put upon record a fair inutge' of the public mind, on the subject of the Vi lag which had been the comic of so much discussion." A little altercation ensued between Mr. O'Connell, 111 r. Law. less, and Mr. O'Reilly, about the Wings, as the Bills for franchising the. [rbdl treelndders and pnying the Catholic Clergy are called: Mr. O'Connell then proceeded to read his resoln. tion on the Wings, when Mr., Lawless begged the resolution 1w meant to, propose to the . Aiming should be read ; oiignadi assented, and read the reioiution, which was as folloyis " Resolved—That having maturely considered the alteration in the Elective; Franchise contemplated by the measure con. neeted with the late Catholic Emancipation Bill, this Meeting is of opinion that:6dt change would be a violation of the mo st vi;loeti principles or the COnStitution ; an unjust surrender of the tights of our Protestant end Dissetitinw Brethren, and would rend to deprive the Catholics'of Ireland of that political power which they have so ath•antagootudy exercised for the last thirty-two years ; and the peasantry of Ireland of that protect. tion which the exercise Of the elective franchise invariably afiltrtled them." Mr. o:Coxlixt.r.,, who did not, could not, like a resolution sn fetal to his own meaftures to pass, sneered at the part which ralveited to the Dissenters, observing, that " - be had no objn. turn to a little. hypocrisy ;" he afterwards said, the resolution had but ww fault, and that was, that nine.tenths ot` it was not true.

(From the Etoile of Thursday.) One of otkr Journals, after searching with great pains for the motives which might have misled the Russians, on the day of the 28th, tells us that Prince Troubetzkoy could have no other motive for defending the succes sion of Constantine than respect for the oath of fidelity he bad taken to that Prince, and his surprise at not being released from it by some authentic act of Nicholas, who had himself taken the same oath. Such may have been the situation of the soldiers, !tad even of some offi cers; but the Journal sles Dena: is imprudent in stirring up a question of which it knows not all the particulars. May we may not suppose it possible, that certain persons might wish to take advantage, during a moment of indecision, and' whilst the Brothers were struggling in their generous con• test, to try the feeling of the Russian Nation, which might have been so fatal in its consequences to the rest of the world ?

Extract of a private letter from Constantinople, dated 10th December, 1825. (From the Constitutionna of Wednesday.) The Emperor Alexander is dead at Taganrog ; the first kn. preesion of this event on the Turks is to produce a feeling of great satisfaction. This Sovereign, as they well knew, tired out by the deceptions policy of Austria, had resolved to take forcible possession of 'Wallachia and Moldavia, which the Turks so obstinately refuse to evacuate. The Russian army in Ilessarabia, 89,000 strong, was certainly destined to pest the Truth next spring. Arrived on the banks of the Danube, the ultimatum of Alexander would then, and not till then, have been announced to the Porte. Of this the Turkish Government was perfectly aware. Neither the Austrian nor the English Lega tions could conceal from them, this terrible determination. It was, however, hoped that they might have had sufficient influ ence: to, have, weakened its .effect, and perhaps have obtained some delay in'the execution of the general decision of Chris tianitywhicit condemns the Illahometans to live in the Deserts of Arabia and Africa. Anticipating these events, it had been decided In some of the Cabinets at .Pera, that !bra him Podia should make n winter campaign, in order to stifle the insurrection in the Morea, before opening the negotiations with Aussie, with a visw to render any discussion on that important question unnecessary. With that view, the new Ambassador from England, charged as it is said, with the propositions of Russia, should have made his journey to Constantinople as slowly as possible, and, once arrived in safety, some time might be ex pected to elapse before opening the conferences. Every thing was calculated to give the Turks sufficient time exterminate the Christians. In Oder to disguise this project, his Highness, it was decided, should send Commissioners to offer an amnesty ,to the Greeks. Confident of the success of Ibrahim Paella, the Divan had communicated to the European Legations, tl►e►r assurance of the immediate evacuation of Missolonghi and Napoli, which being published in certain Journals, might influ ence public opinion pn the subject of their situation. The death ofAlexandet haw now slanged theplan. In truth itgives a respite to Ibrahi►u Pacha,—but the Porte ought to direct its attention to more important objects,—for it is to be remembered, that an Autocrat who would be popular, must, both from duty and from policy, make war upon' the Turks. We are ceutidently assured that Alexander had,foreieen all, and piovided all that was necessary, to bring mutters to a final issue with the Ottoman Porte—his deplorable and premature death is looked upon by the .'Turkish Government as especial interpoition of Heaven. (From the Journal de Paris.) A journeyman printer, of the name'of Celine', who had lost an eye, was passing over the estate of Rear-Admiral Beattssier, in Sept. 1324, where the Admiral was shooting quails, accom panied by one Paul, a farmer. Paul tired at a bird 133 p a ces from the spot where Ca4mel was paning I but, notu standing the great distance a shot strnek him in the remaining eye, the sight of which was lost, and he became totally blind. For this infliction, he brought his action in the Civil Tribunal of Toulon, against Rear-Admiral Beaussier and. Paul Calmat his damages at 12,090 francs. On the 30th of December last, the Court decided the cause, by condemning Paul only, tow' the sum of 1000 francs. A Mail from Buenos Ayres brings Papers to the .5111 of November, from which we hare wade the following extracts : BUENOS AYRES, OCT. 29.

Stephenson, who, was pulled front his horse by.a Negro, while stopping to make way for a procession to pass, adds t he following reflections :—" We regret to say that this is not the only case of the kind which has occurred among us, and that if it is not severely punished, and measures taken to precol; them in future the toleration and hospitality which we profess must be considered as merely nominal. This would have been a criminal action under any circumstances, but at present, after the memorable lAw for the freedom of religious, worship has ! - been passed, the serious attention of the authorities shouldbv exerted to teach the people their duties in this respect."
